Les Trois Petits Cochons (The Three Little Pigs) started in 1975 as a small charcuterie in the heart of New York's Greenwich Village, where founders Alain Sinturel and Jean Pierre Pradié cooked and offered pâtés and other French specialties to the neighborhood gourmets. They soon received rave reviews by such notables as Craig Clairborne, Mimi Sheraton, James Beard, and others. Once word got out, they began making pâtés for other restaurants around Manhattan. By 1990, demand forced them to expand their operation. Les Trois Petits Cochons is recognized for its excellence as a leader in the specialty food business and industry it helped to create. They use all-natural, high-quality ingredients, and craft their foods in small, handmade batches.

Their Saucisson Sec is a pork sausage, naturally air-dried. Made from a time-honored recipe from the mountains of France. The gentle combination of spices from Provence include thyme, rosemary, and fennel. This combination is a beautiful blend of fresh flavor and robust cured pork. A time-honored recipe from the Pyrenees mountains of France, now handmade in the USA!

I buy this for a friend who is french canadian. he loves it. His only complaint is that its not bigger!

Loved It

Ordered this for a Birthday Present. Now, I have the man strung out on this and I will have to keep it on permanent order......

excellent flavor

This saucisson is quite delightful with the herbes de provence. Makes for good snacking.

Disappointing

Order this for my sister but here's the feedback she sent:
"Hey I got the sauscison. Thank you so much! But please please don't send us any more from them. The first time it was true sauscison in the skin and delicious but since then it is in plastic and it really is not good. It is soggy and not tasty and even though I take it out of the plastic and hang it up to dry it is just so moist and not tasty. So again thank you so much for trying to get me some sauscison but the Trois Couchons is not it."
Sorry!

A favorite; the best sausage product we've purchased

When you want a meat element on your cheese tray, there's nothing yummier than Saucission Sec aux Herbes de Provence. It's delicious on its own, and the mild, slightly sweet pork flavors and just right herbs complement most cheeses.

Good but not the

The saussage was good but when you are used to real "Saucisson" from Provence it lacks a bit of flavor. Although, it is probably the best we have found in the States....
